Talk:Cloak trick

Sept 23, 2010

The character Nyctef significantly chopped my original contribution down, deleting why the cloak trick is useful, what the cloak trick is, and relevant information regarding the fact that hitting the mwd after the cloak works. He also introduced a confusing statement that when you drop cloak you will be at "near align speeds" rather than "near-warp speed." He also introduced several grammatical errors. I've undone his edits and reverted this post to it's original form. - Dooobles.

Actually, the information you say I deleted was added to the first paragraph. "Align speed" is a term I've heard and used a lot (meaning 75% of max speed), while warp speed could be confused with the maximum speed attainable during warp (like 3 or 6 AU/s). I'm not sure about the grammatical errors; maybe you could elaborate on those. Anyway, I'll leave it alone for now. Nyctef 18:37, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

I have never heard anyone use the term "align speed..." ever. You can align to an object at any speed. I see your history of editing other people's pages from your user page. I feel you consistently remove anecdotal advice that may be helpful for new players and that's why I restored this page to the state it was before your edits. If you're not ADDING something to my pages please leave them as they are unless you can back up and document that there is mis-information or have additional information to add. I'm not trying to be a jerk, I appreciate your effort to improve things and the articles you created yourself on the ORE ships are nice. Unless something is blatantly outdated you should confer with the original author before editing if possible, no one "owns" wiki pages but it is considered polite to consult with people who created the article. An example of your grammatical error would be saying "an MWD" in your revision. An is used only before words starting with vowels, I know it's not a big deal but it irritates me to find it on a page I originally authored. I also make grammatical errors, no worries. I appreciate your effort and cooperation, thanks man. Dooobles Sept 24, 2010.
